@WLordnDRanch12 that makes no sense. Marines and the Navy are two different branches of the military, but you are right about their egos. Although, I think each branch has their own pride; and they should. They serve our country; they have earned that right.
Generally Marines are not trained in knife fighting, the philosophy being that if the enemy gets within close-combat range then you're not shooting well enough. They leave the knife-work to the SEALS.
you do know that ronon had had no martial arts experience before he got the job to be ronon on Stargate Atlantis so that just goes to show what a few weeks of training can do and please the marines have nothing on anyone they have egos the size of the united states of america but fighting skills the size of George bushes brain that means very very little for those marines out there reading this
@armycadet1234 Your argument would've probably been conciderably more persuasive if you had actually paid attention during those writing classes in school. Periods and commas do exist for a reason, as do capitalizations. As for the Marines fighting ability, you obviously never met a Marine.
I don't want to meet a marine cause he would to busy playing his texan incest songs on the banjo and screaming hooorrrraaaaa ima wanker i'm in the marines
Ronan is good in all but, Marines are the most wild and bad ass guys in the army. Shit there are probably people like Ronan in the Marines. But in SGA they kinda suck...
Which to me was one of the many things they should have improved on. Main characters are the primary interest but in shows, the side smaller actors are usually as important. Its a shame the creators didn't see that.
@WLordnDRanch12 The marines are their own branch, the smallest and most elite branch in the US, and the US has the best (or at least it did, don't know if it still does) military in the world. They are America's first and last defense, and often first choice in an invasion. The Navy gets the Marines to their destination, point them in the right direction, then get out of the way. As to the egos.... those are well deserved.
@MurryFolt That depends entirely on how you define best. They are definitely the best funded and equipped and armed. But it isn't the biggest or the best trained military.
@MasterlyApprentice I don't believe it is anymore. The training has been dulled, forces over stretched, and funding cut to much. It used to be the best, for a time, but I don't think it is now. It certainly isn't the biggest military. And I don't really know who has the best training. Places like Israel have the most experience maybe, but who does have the best training? I just know, over all, the US Military USED to be the best. I'm afraid those times are gone... :(

I find it interesting that Stargate videos have comments that are smarter than what youtube usually sees. Different crowd much? :)

@WLordnDRanch12 Actually the Marines are their own branch, though they do work closely with the Navy.

Marines are actually in no army section
they are their own corps that falls under the command of whatever force has jurisdiction in their theater of operation

I think the premise is that Ronan is one of the most exceptional fighters in his galaxy. Never mind the US Marines. He's way beyond that.
